46 CFR Part 113
[Docket No. USCG-2020-0075]
RIN 1625-AC66
Update to Electrical Engineering Regulations; Correction
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In a final rule the Coast Guard published in the Federal
Register on March 16, 2023, an inadvertent error in an amendatory

DATES: Effective April 26, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 16, 2023, the Coast Guard published
a final rule titled ``Update to Electrical Engineering Regulations'' at
88 FR 16369. The final rule contained an error in amendatory
instruction 121 that prevented the correct updating of 46 CFR 113.50-5.
Amendatory instruction 121 in the final rule said the changes were for
Sec. 113.50-25, which does not exist. This document corrects that
error and adopts the intended changes for Sec. 113.50-5.
We find good cause under provisions in 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) to make
this correction effective upon publication because delaying the
effective date is unnecessary and contrary to the public interest.
Waiting 30 days after publication to correct the error within the final
rule is unnecessary and contrary to the public's interest in having
access to accurate and current regulations. The March 16, 2023 final
rule preamble discussion indicated the changes were for the right
section, Sec. 113.50-5, but the amendatory instruction was inaccurate.
List of Subjects in 46 CFR Part 113
Communications equipment, Fire prevention, Incorporation by
reference, Vessels.
